Subject description: A Very Irritating Problem Has finally been resolved!		 Reply with quote  Mark this post and the followings unread
Beowulf has recently posted on PPM a file known as 'DDRAW.DLL' which supposedly fixed lag problems in Red Alert 2 / Yuri's Revenge, in the thread that Beowulf posted this file in he also mentioned that it could work In Tiberian Sun too. After testing the file, Lin Kuei Ominae then announced (Very happily I Might add) that the DDRAW.DLL file fixes the very annoying WaveClass error which has been bugging Tiberian Sun modders for a very long time, check out this thread on both WaveClass errors and the download for DDRAW.DLL.

Well, its not credit to him, because he just posted/re-opened knowledge of a old discovery.

Credit goes to who ever created DirectX, Microsoft #Tongue

Actually Fen didn't create the File but hosted it, as he found it somewhere else. Linked on the topic linked first in aro's post by DCoder.

The whole thing started with me having problem with RA2 on my new computer. While i myself did some research and searching on Google i read somewhere about DirectDraw which is an DirectX Feature. While i posted about this on the Topic, Fen (Beowulf) Hosted this file so i could try it, to see if there where any diffrence, and it was.

While we solved my problem (And many others) with RA2/YR running slow, Lin Kuei Ominae Tested this file to try if this fixed the Waveclass Error in TS.
And the result showed it did, because this makes the Graphics get Drawn by Software instead of Rendered by the Hardware, thus resulting of The Waveclass Error not accouring since some Graphics card don't have some kind of pixel positioning while moving out of screen or something like that (Detailed info can be found on Lin Kuei Ominae's post linked in Initial post of this thread.)

All in all, It started with me having a problem with RA2YR Running slow, ended with the Waveclass Error fixed.

But yes Fen (Beowulf) Still made a miracle here... In his own way Smile

Me and LKO did come to agreement that its highly possible to be Graphics Hardware related, but the WaveClass error is related to Alpha Blending, strange stuff...
